Beer and Pretzels (1933) is the second of five short films starring Ted Healy and His Stooges (Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly Howard) released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. A musical-comedy film, the film also featured Bonnie Bonnell, Healy's girlfriend at the time.

Some footage of Healy and the Stooges from the unfinished MGM musical The March of Time was included in the film as well.

Plot

Ted Healy and his Stooges are entertainers. But because Healy is much more interested in women than he is in performing, they are thrown out of the Happy Hour Theatre. Unable to keep a job anywhere else, they are reduced to waiting tables at a high-class restaurant. This, of course, ends up being a disaster as the restaurant is thrown into chaos because of them. So, yet again, they are thrown back out on to the streets.
